I'm a Med. Esthetician and I want to share with you my experience with SkinSpirit. They definitely have a great qualified staff. I send my clients who need BOTOX®Cosmetic and fillers and different laser treatments to them. Lynn Bartels does beautiful injections and that takes an eye of a artist to do it right. Cara does great laser work etc. Being in the business, I need to keep my clients happy and current on all new treatments and SkinSpirit does that for me....Thank-you SkinSpirit

Thank you SkinSpirit! I visited SkinSpirit three weeks before my wedding, after spending a small fortune with a Los Gatos plastic surgeon who gave me painful Restylene injections and, it turns out, went VERY light on the amount he used. With a short time before my wedding and a definite budget, the SkinSpirit folks (particularly Lynn & Michelle) made me look my absolute best (at 49!), and I have a wedding album full of pictures to prove it! I looked rested (which I wasn't) and calm with beautiful skin and sun damage on my neck and chest gone. Lynn & Michelle are absolutely wonderful. Regarding some negative comments I've read - Wow! - Are you sure you were at SkinSpirit? I've NEVER experienced "product pushing" or long waiting. I'd never go to another skin care clinic - If you want the latest and greatest techniques or procedures from a skilled and wonderful staff, I suggest going to SkinSpirit!

What I liked:
clean, quiet setting. but still homely, not cold and clinic like.
no attitude from reception girls (!!)
parking on site. free.
I felt no pressure from SkinSpirit to get things I don't want or need. This truly was a consultation where I asked questions, and got answers that were about me, not products.
I like that she used examples of celebs who overdo it when it comes to certain treatments, like BOTOX®Cosmetic. I like that she explained how it worked, and the history of it, and the other places it’s used in medicine that I was unaware of.

Lynn, Thank you so much for a really positive experience on Friday. I left feeling better about my outer self than I have in years-and I mean it. Your skill is unparalleled, and your artistry is amazing. I love your work…you've taken ten years off my appearance-plan on seeing me twice a year! -L.Z.

My husband had two major spinal surgeries a few years ago and suffered permanent nerve damage. The nerve damage means that he suffered from chronic pain that eventually began to affect his sweet spirit. I finally decided enough was enough and I urged him to begin weekly deep tissue massages. He has been going every Friday to see Cassandra. After just two sessions, he no longer suffers chronic pain and we are so grateful to Cassandra’s healing touch, we can't begin to thank her enough. This has literally changed our lives because he can now do things he wasn't able to do anymore like walking for more than thirty minutes at a time. Since he is no longer in pain, his spirits have been lifted as well. All week long he looks forward to his massages. We also love the professional and friendly staff. Just a few days ago my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas and I told him a gift certificate from SkinSpirit for a professional facial. Thank you for giving my sweet husband back to me. -T.M.

I wanted you to know what a wonderful experience I had with Lynn Bartels. She is truly amazing. I've only been to your clinic three times but I've already given your name to several friends. I feel and look great thanks to her! I'll be back!!-S.P.

At SkinSpirit you always get the latest state-of-the-art treatments, products and advice. But more importantly, at SkinSpirit, you are treated like family. My daughter and I love everyone at SkinSpirit; the welcoming atmosphere and personal attention are what keep us coming back.

For the last year I have been "Shopping around" and doing research on BOTOX®Cosmetic, and Restylane. After visiting with two dermatologists and a few plastic surgeons I thought I would never find anyone I trusted enough to just try these procedures. Then I found Lynn at SkinSpirit. I knew from the moment she started talking to me that she knew her stuff. Her personality, knowledge and experience made it easy for me to decide...so I did it!! How happy am I??? I love the results from both the BOTOX®Cosmetic (frown lines and forehead) and Restylane (lips and face). I will never go to anyone else, you know what they say..Once you have had the best!! I will also highly recommend SkinSpirit. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful, and the place has a beautiful and warm atmosphere. Thanks to everyone!! -D.L.

The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable. When I left I felt rested yet energized. I felt like I had just spent some quality time with a good friend. -T.M.

You and your staff make everyone feel as if he or she is a member of your family. You do not talk down, you inform and you take time for each client treating each as if he or she was the most important person in the world. Thank you. -J.Y.

It was great to meet you today! Thank you for all the awesome information. I told my dad that a gift certificate from your clinic is the only gift I want anymore. -S.S.

Wow! I have to say that I think that Thermage rocks. My skin looks so good! My eyes look great and I didn't have time for a BOTOX®Cosmetic touch-up when I was out either. -L.H.

I have had hundreds of massages over the years at numerous spas and Joe was by far and away the best ever! He did things that were incredible. I definitely will be back to see him and have referred a bunch of my girlfriends to him. He was amazing. -C.H.

Thanks for taking such great care of my mom...she is telling all her friends about SkinSpirit. You ladies do great work over there. As a guy, I personally used to feel a little awkward, or out of place at those beauty salons but I felt right at home over there...you gals are great...terrific! -A.E.

SkinSpirit is all about women celebrating women! When I went in for a consult on my skin and how to take away those annoying wrinkles, I had a roomful of consultants talking enthusiastically about what to do! They just sort of would peek in and see what was going on with my service and then before I knew it I had a few of them discussing my treatment with excitement. It was like a girl party of sorts! I really felt like they were tuned into bringing out the best through their services AND they are EXCITED about it. My lips never looked so good.

(To Lynn Bartels, NP) I have been meaning to write you and once I even texted you! But you should just know how delightful you are, how skilled you are, and how satisfied I am not only with your implementation but with your aesthetic reading of what I want. You listen carefully, combine that understanding with what you know will look good with my face, then you execute flawlessly. Thanks so much. -S.F.

SkinSpirit has an energy running through it created by its director Stacey Yates. Stacey has made it clear from my first facial, "we want you completely happy" and happy I am! Her service approach and enthusiasm radiates to the entire staff. -C.S.

I am more then happy to put into writing my appreciation of Kira. Front desks can make or break experiences in the services I choose to use. Kira greeted me with a smile the first time I came to SkinSpirit and it wasn’t fake or pushed. She is genuine, super responsible and uniquely responsive to me as a client and as a person. Once, when I was rushing and arrived for my appointment without having eaten for far too long, she even offered to make me a sandwich from her personal stash (delicious!) She is a huge asset (in my opinion) to your company and her consistent presence is part of what keeps me coming back and happily spending every penny of my beauty bucks. Thank you Kira, for being smart enough to be your fabulous self! You are much appreciated!!

I really enjoyed meeting with you yesterday and learning about SkinSpirit. Especially walking through – it is truly a spa-like ambiance. While others claim it, the SkinSpirit layout and atmosphere definitely make the mark! Very soothing, relaxing and refreshing. -L.T.

I used to indulge in day spas all over the Peninsula and San Francisco, hopping between different places for facials, massages, and laser work, but I am now a SkinSpirit groupie. In addition, SkinSpirit has incredible product lines which are custom picked for your skin type, so I know I can treat my skin daily with the same quality products used when I visit. Every time I leave, I feel better. And the SkinSpirit staff is hands-down the most professional staff I've dealt with, which is the primary reason I return. -S.A.G.

You guys are almost too good to put into words. Truly, where do I begin?! From the first moment I walked into SkinSpirit, I felt swept away by a pampering spirit. The (always) friendly greeting at the front desk, the beautifully decorated waiting room, the fun samples... And that’s all before the treatments begin! But, truth is, the real treat happens in the treatment rooms. Oh my. I book my appointments way in advance and end up looking forward to them for weeks. Thank you for hiring such incredible, caring, personable, talented staff. I started coming for skin care but now I also come for the absolutely divine experience of being pampered!
I think you and your staff are absolute aces... and I’m not easily impressed. -P.S.

SkinSpirit is the best. They give wonderful massages and have a friendly and attentive staff. They really make you feel welcome. It is a great place. Just talking about it makes me want to have a massage! -P.C.

I would be able to fill your entire e–mail system with the many great, fun, and lasting experiences I encountered with the staff at SkinSpirit. They were professional in every sense but provided a warm and friendly situation at the same time. I made new friends and gained a fresh new outlook concerning facial and body care. The compliments keep coming thanks to SkinSpirit so would I recommend them – in a New York Minute! -R.W.

We'd love to hear from you about your SkinSpirit experience. May we post your comments on this page? Thank you.
